The Hoosier Ag This Week Podcast for 3/1/25

On this week’s edition of Hoosier Ag This Week: Bird Flu has been the top story—not just here in Indiana, but in Washington, D.C.—as your lawmakers and ag leaders work to find solutions to stop the outbreak. C.J. Miller reports on the $1 billion plan announced by USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins to lower egg prices, stop the spread of Bird Flu, and protect U.S. poultry producers. You’ll also hear from Rose Acre Farms CEO Tony Wesner. He testified this past week before the Senate Ag Committee and encouraged the ag community to implement Bird Flu vaccines as part of the protocol to stop the virus.

You’ll also hear a preview of Commodity Classic, which is kicking off Sunday in Denver. Eric Pfeiffer chats with Dubois County farmer J.R. Roesner, who is on the board of the National Corn Growers Association, about the huge trade show that runs through Tuesday.

Plus, Brian Basting with Advance Trading reviews Friday’s grain markets. All that and much more are part of the Hoosier Ag This Week Podcast!
